Synced Factory Twins (SFT)

2016 - 2017

Aim

With the Synced Factory Twins project, the prostep ivip Association drives forward to present its members with a comprehensive approach and proposing concrete solutions. The focus is placed on the implementation of cross-domain, looped information exchange between product development, production planning and production that does not operate in one direction only but instead provides for the feedback of data. With these concepts, the vision of change management without media discontinuities, i.e. the possibility of communicating changes from production back to planning without loss of information or delay, now lies within our grasp.

After the successful implementation of a first demonstrator, the group will now open up for new participants from industry and will extend its results toward their requirements.
